Considering how terrible the writing is on Starfield, I'm not sure Bethesda has it in them anymore. The quests are often incredibly boring, and the worldbuilding itself is a bit meh. Same with the books you find; they cheaped out and used public domain materials for the most part, and the books that do have in house content are… not great. What I liked about Oblivion and Skyrim was that the books you could find really helped to "fill out" the world, but in Starfield they're just either uninteresting or plain bad – like those fucking cringy joke books
